benos Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 A customer just called (running XP/IE) and said that no links in the drop-down menu: Specific Dillon Items Select From List... ... work for him. An example of that drop-down can be found at the top and bottom of any of my Dillon Store pages, such as the "Range Stuff" page: http://www.brianenos.com/store/dillon.range.html He said he was on his "work machine," and was sure that XP was the latest version. And although I didn't ask him, I'm guessing XP was an "Office" or "Business" version. He wasn't certain on IE's version, but thought it was up to date as well. He tried the "Specific Dillon Items" drop-down on all the other Dillon Store categories pages: Square Deal, RL 550B, XL 650, etc. - and it didn't work on any of them. It just left him on the page he was on, and various error messages appeared "at the bottom of the page." I have clunker Dell laptop running XP "Home Edition" / IE for site testing, and the drop-down works fine on it. So I'm wondering if anyone can duplicate this problem for me. The code in that drop-down has been like that for 2+ years, so if there is a "real" problem I'm surprised I'm just now hearing about it.

Smokey Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Works fine for me Brian, using XP Pro and both IE6 and Firefox. -Shawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AikiDale Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 (edited) I just tried it with XP Home SP2 and IE 6 and Firefox with no problems. I'll try it later with an XP Pro machine from work behind our firewall but it has worked in the past just fine there as well. UPDATE! Works from work with IE 6 and XP Pro both with SP2. Are we surprised? Edited August 24, 2006 by AikiDale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benos Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 Thanks for the feedback all. I really doubt there will be a problem with Firefox. But with some combination of versions of XP and IE... well, you just can't say for sure. More feedback is welcomed. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritinUSA Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Tell him to empty the cache and try again. IE is notorious for not cleaning up after itself and maybe something got screwed in his cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 It works just fine in IE 6 and FireFox under XP Pro running in Virtual PC on a Mac. I do all my Wintel web testing this way and know it is valid from lotsa' confirmation testing. This guys machine is where the issue is, not your code ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
